Do you agree with this quote?

"Trying is lying. There is no such thing as trying. You do
it or you don't. You get results in life or you have
excuses why you didn't. When people say,
'I'll try,' they usually mean, 'I'm not
going to do it now.'"

bill	posted 25-Mar-2009 10:35am Dick Sutphen is not in wikipedia, therefore he is nothing.
LindaH	posted 25-Mar-2009 10:42am What if you don't have your own entry in wikipedia, but you are mentioned in an article? What does that make you?

Cain	posted 25-Mar-2009 12:21pm No, I disagree. I often try to do things for people, sometimes I manage, sometimes I don't. But if I've said I will try to do something, I will.

icurok	posted 26-Mar-2009 5:11am I hope he works away from home a lot. Can you picture the scene? His 6 year old son taking the stabilisers off his bike for the first time.. "OK, son. I want you to ride from here to that wall over there" "OK, Dad. I'll try". "TRY!!! TRY!?! You lying sack of crap! You make me want to PUKE! I didn't raise a fudging loser who tries! Now get peddling and get to that wall or so help me I'll fudging disown you!" I want Dick Sutphen to try and imagine a world in which people only ever did things if they were guaranteed a successful outcome..... and then I want him to go and fudge himself (or at least try to).

Melf	posted 26-Mar-2009 12:49pm Oh, fudge off.
Jody	posted 26-Mar-2009 1:42pm As Yoda would say, "Do or do not. There is no try."
bill	(reply to cloudhugger) posted 26-Mar-2009 2:03pm Jody gets it!
cloudhugger	(reply to Jody, bill) posted 26-Mar-2009 7:27pm YAY!!
Jody	(reply to cloudhugger) posted 27-Mar-2009 8:40am Totally rocks does Yoda.
cloudhugger	(reply to Jody) posted 27-Mar-2009 10:09am As do you.
Jody	(reply to cloudhugger) posted 27-Mar-2009 10:18am Aw, thanks. Sadly, whenever I try to do a Yoda voice, I wind up sounding more like Grover. I'll keep working at it though....
cloudhugger	(reply to Jody) posted 27-Mar-2009 11:23am Think in a greyish green voice. Grover is blue.
Jody	(reply to cloudhugger) posted 27-Mar-2009 4:02pm Do my best I will...
cloudhugger	(reply to Jody) posted 27-Mar-2009 4:59pm Isn't that a much stronger statement than "I'll try...?"

meowry	posted 18-Apr-2009 11:59am I get what he's trying to say. But his overall whiny attitude leads me to believe that he's just making excuses.
